Cyclones manager Donnelly leaving, headed to Triple-A Tacoma
So Sad To See You Go Rich
Though he was born and raised in Steubenville, Ohio and led a nomadic existence as a Major League-affiliated coach and manager for better than four decades, Rich Donnelly was proud to call Brooklyn his home for the past three years.
Sadly, Donnelly’s run as the Cyclones’ longest-tenured manager officially ended Thursday when the 67-year-old baseball sage accepted the Triple-A manager’s post at Tacoma in the Seattle Mariners’ organization.
“We wish him well,” Cyclones general manager Steve Cohen told the Eagle on Thursday morning.
